This Afghan prayer rug displays the classic mihrab design with a rich burgundy prayer niche framed by intricate geometric borders. The field features traditional motifs in deep reds, navy blues, and warm ivory accents that create a sense of reverence and contemplation. The precise geometric patterns flow seamlessly from the central prayer arch to the ornate outer borders, showcasing the weaver's mastery of this sacred art form.

Crafted by skilled artisans in Afghanistan using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this prayer rug is hand-knotted from 100% wool at 50-60 knots per square inch. The dense weave ensures durability for daily use while the natural Ghazni wool provides the lustrous finish and resilience that Afghan rugs are renowned for. Each knot represents hours of meticulous craftsmanship, resulting in a piece that will maintain its beauty for decades.

At 2' 9" x 4' 9", this prayer rug fits perfectly beside a bed, in a meditation space, or as an accent piece in entryways and small sitting areas. The compact size makes it ideal for apartments or as part of a larger Afghan rug collection, while the 3 x 5 proportions work beautifully in both traditional and contemporary interiors.
